Title:
  Update Package request for libservicelog

Status in The Ubuntu-power-systems project:
  Fix Released
Status in libservicelog package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in libservicelog source package in Xenial:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  [Impact]

  Update Package request for libservicelog. Some upstream patches have
  been requested to be included in both bionic and xenial. The addressed
  issues can potentially affect customer environments, causing possible
  segmentation faults.

  [Test Case]

  The packages will be validated by the requesting party (see original
  description).

  Besides making sure servicelog does not segfault anymore and
  performing general dogfooding, the upstream test-suite will need to be
  run and made sure to pass on the affected systems.

  [Regression Potential]

  Hard to assess but the requested patches have been in upstream trunk
  since at least a year and no issues have been reported - changes also
  present in Debian and Ubuntu bionic since last year.

  [Original Description]

      Validate text string before and after bind call

      While binding string to query, if string is NULL then bind call gets ignored.
      While fetching data from string, if data is NULL then current code makes query
      as NULL and returns.

      This patch validates text string before and after bind call. It assigns string
      to "" incase data is NULL points to NULL pointer. After this we will be able
      to display information even if some of string data is NULL.

      It also does NULL checks for compulsory string.
